ANYONE?! The only thing I found was the Coli cell, "What we do know is how fast they can grow given perfect conditions! The bacteria we know most about is E. coli. This has been studied for a long time. The conditions that allow a bacterium to grow best are called the “optimum conditions”. When E. coli is growing in optimum conditions (nice and warm, lots of nutrients), each individual cell can divide into two cells every 20 minutes! This means that if you start off with one E. coli cell, if the conditions are right, 20 minutes later you will have 2 cells. After another 20 minutes each of these will have divided into 2 cells giving a total of 4 cells. After another 20 mins (1 hour from the start), these four will have divided again giving a total of 8." Write a function rule for your bacterium in the table where h is the number of hours and b(h) is the bacterium at h hours. b(h()=
